The ring is a circular route that sorrounds the centre of Moscow.
Originally here stood the long and tall defensive walls of the city of tsars. Between XVIII and XIX century a two way road with a green boulvard in the middle took their place. That green boulvard is now considered the longest park in Moscow. It is also the park with the most original shape and -I would like to add, the narrowest park I've ever walked.
I went to explore it last week.
I found literature (the statute of Aleksandr Griboyedov - Russian playwright), architecture ("monastyr" seem to mushroom in Moscow), politics (the statue of Nadezdha Krupskaya: Lenin's wife - writer and fierce Bolshevik), music (the statute of Sergei Rachmaninov - composer), art (several museums). In Petrovsky Bulvar, between Petrosky Monastyr and Art Nouveau buildings I also found "globalization".
